Find an Illinois Graduate Fellow

Apply for an Alliance Fellow

Connecting with an Illinois student through the graduate fellowship program offers Mayo Clinic researchers access to cutting-edge expertise and innovative thinking to advance your research.

1. Confirm that your project aligns with the Alliance mission and review the Graduate Fellowship eligibility and financial support. Please note that Fellowships are limited.
2. Contact the Alliance administrative team with a brief outline of your area of research and how a Graduate Fellow might help with one of your research questions.
3. The Alliance administrative team will investigate with Illinois researchers who may have a student suitable for your opportunity and contact you with further details.

The Alliance team will work with you to determine a funding source for the fellowship stipend. Limited funds may be available through Mayo Clinic sources via application, or a Mayo Clinic investigator may use their own research funds. Other costs, including tuition, are covered by Illinois.
